(there's a reason content patcher does this by the way, it's so everything from other mods that add stuff - like Json Assets - has already been added to the Content files and can be targeted properly by CP mods)

bleak venture
#

It makes sense

fair vessel
#

@bleak venture if it's possible could depend a lot on the specific mods. What are they?

#

@upbeat rover Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

bleak venture

Trying to figure out a work around for get glam

Ah, I'm not too familiar with that one myself 😕

@dire fractal Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

dire fractal
#

im not getting any errors actually, when i open sdv

#

i just dk why the kitchen hasnt been replaced

fair vessel
#

@upbeat rover looks like you're missing one of the SVE folders. Try a reinstall? Make sure you add every folder from the unzipped download.

royal arrow
#

the log is for more than just errors, it'll show us all the mods you have installed o:

#

and we can see what's getting applied and what isn't

dire fractal
upbeat rover
#

@fair vessel A reinstall of SVE? I've reinstalled the TMX mod several times with no luck.

royal arrow
#

kaznej, I think it might be because of A Toned Down Stardew Valley o: so in this case, you'd add a dependency to the Chic Cute Kitchen manifest.json, so that it loads after A Toned Down Stardew Valley

#

although, that may have unintended consequences for your farmhouse, so we'd have to see SDVpuffersquee (I've never used A Toned Down Stardew Valley so I'm not sure how it'll look)

dire fractal
#

oof

#

i think i'll leave a toned down sdv

royal arrow
#

it'd be quick to test though, and easily revert

fair vessel
#

Yeah SVE

dire fractal
#

ok hold on i think i forgot to disable the a toned down furniture

#

i'll try that

upbeat rover
#

@fair vessel I doubled check the folder. I think I accidentally deleted one of the folders. Things seem to be working now. TY 🙂

dire fractal
#

yeeah it was that

#

it works now ^^

sturdy basin
#

@royal arrow i am still stuck and it wont let me download it can u help thank u

royal arrow
#

hi, no need to ping, I'm frequently this chat SDVpuffersmile
Can you provide more detail? are you on the nexus page, and logged in? You need to have an account and be logged in

sturdy basin
#

ok sorry oh ok i didnt make a acc i just pressed download nothing happpeded

royal arrow
#

also, to back up a bit, did you already download and install the mod loader, SMAPI?

sturdy basin
#

ok thank you

royal arrow
#

also note that you can make a nexus account for free, but when you register, you have to scroll down past the paid membership options to get to the free membership option

sturdy basin
#

i still cant download it

#

i have extaracted all my files nothings happing

#

can u download any desk then downlaod them for me

#

anydesk just lets u controll my comutor

royal arrow
#

I'm confused, were you unable to download the files, or were you able to download the files but not extract them? Which step are you at, installing SMAPI, or did you already install SMAPI and are working on installing the necessary mods for SVE?
I need a bit more detail to understand what you're trying to do and what's not working, so that I can help SDVpuffersmile

sturdy basin
#

can i call u so i can explain?

royal arrow
#

I think chat is fine, if you write out exactly what steps you've tried and where you got stuck

sturdy basin
#

ive put the files in stadew nothings happend

royal arrow
#

can you take a screenshot of the folder?

#

and did you already install SMAPI, or are you working on that?

sturdy basin
#

Idk

restive zodiac
#

You need to install SMAPI.

royal arrow
#

Ok, it looks like you haven't installed SMAPI, you have to do that first

sturdy basin
#

I put the files in they were winrar

#

How

royal arrow
restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

can u send me a link of smapi download

restive zodiac
#

There is also a link to the SMAPI download. (Step 2.)

sturdy basin
#

do i just put this inside stardewvally?

#

?

snow wraith
#

no. you just unzip and run smapi, you can do that from wherever you downloaded it to, it adds folders and files to the game automatically

#

Then you put any mods you want in the 'mods' folder that smapi created.

sturdy basin
#

how do i run the mod

#

i just put it in stardew vally

#

@snow wraith

#

also sorry for late responce

restive zodiac
#

@sturdy basin You needed to follow the steps, which said to put it somewhere not in the game folder, and then run the installer. Did you run the installer? Did you get a message saying SMAPI was successfully installed?

sturdy basin
#

yes

#

i have done that

#

but now

restive zodiac
#

We need to know how far you got, what you got stuck on, in order to help.

#

Alright, SMAPI created a Mods folder in your game folder.

sturdy basin
#

ok well now am at the part were i go into adveanced options

#

but it says when i run it

restive zodiac
#

Are you talking about the launch options in Steam?

sturdy basin
#

hold on il send u a screenshot

#

yes

restive zodiac
#

Can you copy the whole line you put in your launch options and paste it here?

sturdy basin
#

That’s what I copied

#

(see smapi.io/install):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

restive zodiac
#

You just need this part "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

sturdy basin
#

Ohhhh

#

Ok

#

Il try that

#

Am in

#

How do I use them

#

@restive zodiac

restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

I have allready downloaded the 1 I want

restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

It in my star dew valley files

#

It’s the bigger world 1

restive zodiac
#

It does not go in your Stardew Valley files, it needs to be installed into your Mods folder along with everything it requires. The install guide has a picture of what your Mods folder should look like.

sturdy basin
#

How do I do that do I extract that folder into the mod folder

restive zodiac
#

(There are a lot of mods that add new locations and NPCs, so try to be more specific in the future. In this case I assumed what you meant because you said "expansion mod" and "Expanded" is like expansion, and because I saw the farm folder for it in your game folder screenshot.)

sturdy basin
#

K

restive zodiac
#

Did you look at the install guide I linked you?

sturdy basin
#

No

#

Do I just move the file in there

restive zodiac
#

Download the files, open the zip, drag the folders inside into the Mods folder. We make install guides for a reason, though.

sturdy basin
#

What am I downloading

#

What files

restive zodiac
sharp belfry
#

hey here's an idea: at least look at the guide and then ask questions if you still have any

restive zodiac
#

Jani, please don't interject only for the purpose of being rude. If you imagine everyone doing that at the same time, it just creates a hostile pile-on.

sturdy basin
#

I can’t read it

#

Like

#

Idk what to do

#

Idk how to explain it

#

Am sorry if am seeming like a pain

restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

I just really want the mod

#

Ok

#

Do I download them al

#

Haven’t I allready download smapi

restive zodiac
#

That's part of the "Install all of these mods" part, yes, hehe.

#

Yes, you've already installed SMAPI. Check.

#

Next...

sturdy basin
#

So do I jus drag all these in the stardew valley folder

#

?

#

And should I download smapi or not

restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

K

#

Should I down load vortex or manual

restive zodiac
#

Manual.

sturdy basin
#

K

#

Ok it’s done

restive zodiac
#

(It's understandable to be impatient to get it running, but you need to remember that everyone here is only helping because they want to help people and basically donating time to do that that they could be doing other things. Please make an effort to read instructions when they are provided for you. It's okay to ask specific questions about them, but ignoring them is frustrating to people who would otherwise be happy to help.)

sturdy basin
#

Ok

#

Am sorry

restive zodiac
#

(If you want, you can install More Grass instead of Winter Grass. Either one will work. If you've already got Winter Grass and all you're planning on doing is SVE and you won't install any grass packs anyway, you might as well stick with the one you got already.)

sturdy basin
#

Ok

low spire
#

Hey I’m having an issue with the diversity mod and I was wondering if somebody here could help

restive zodiac
#

What's the issue?

sturdy basin
#

Ok right I have download all the files

#

@restive zodiac

#

Do I put them into the mod file

restive zodiac
#

You need to open each zip file and drag out the folders inside to put them into your Mods folder, so that it looks something like the picture above.

sturdy basin
#

So I drag all those folders in mods yeah

restive zodiac
#

It looks like you extracted them directly into your game folder - they don't go there, but you can just drag them into the Mods folder from there. They are technically folders inside of other folders, but it will still work.

sturdy basin
#

Ok

restive zodiac
#

(If you update your mods in the future, you'll need to remove the old ones first.)

sturdy basin
#

K

restive zodiac
#

(If those are all the files you downloaded, I don't see spacecore or Farm Type Manager.)

sturdy basin
#

Now can I just go back to the tab in the game

restive zodiac
#

No.

sturdy basin
#

Oh should I restart

pulsar geyser
sturdy basin
#

?

#

Should I restart

restive zodiac
#

Restart what, the game?

sturdy basin
#

Ye

restive zodiac
#

No, just close it if it's running. You're not doing anything with the game right now.

sturdy basin
#

Also should I put smapi internal in mods

restive zodiac
#

The mods won't take effect until you reload it, but you aren't ready yet.

sturdy basin
#

Ok

restive zodiac
#

No.

sturdy basin
#

Ok

pulsar geyser
#

smapi has an installer

restive zodiac
#

arctichen, SMAPI is already installed.

sturdy basin
#

Ok I check

pulsar geyser
#

oh

#

k then

sturdy basin
#

No

#

They don’t

#

They just look like files

restive zodiac
#

If you compare your Mods folder to the one in the pictures, you should get an idea of what you are missing. Do you see folders in the screenshots that aren't in your Mods folder?

sturdy basin
restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

Done

#

Now what

#

?

restive zodiac
proven helm
#

idk if like you can't access mermaid island because SVE may change it idk

restive zodiac
#

I don't think it should have any problems with any of the animated mods, but not sure about More New Fish specifically. I think they're patched to be compatible but not sure on whose end or if it's up to date.

#

No, you should be able to get to Mermaid Island fine.

sturdy basin
#

Wait hold on

proven helm
#

its mainly more new fish

#

because animated just adds anims for it

sturdy basin
#

Is it ok if my farm mod is in the mod secshion

robust bison
#

yes

sturdy basin
#

Ok

restive zodiac
#

That's where it goes, yes, we just haven't gotten there yet.

#

(That is also on the instructions page.)

sturdy basin
#

Ok sorry it said someing about main files and I got confused

restive zodiac
#

I was going to say that downloading the main SVE file might take a bit, but then I remembered my internet sucks :P

sturdy basin
#

Ok so do I just put them in game files and a done?

#

@restive zodiac

restive zodiac
#
  1. Find your game folder. Open the Mods folder inside there.
  1. Download this mod from Nexus.
  2. Open the downloaded folder before moving it to Mods. The download contains many folders. Copy all of those folders into your Mods folder.
#

Did you do all of these?

sturdy basin
#

Ok can u send the download link

restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

Ok

#

Is it we’re main mod is yeah?

restive zodiac
#

@low spire I never saw you explain what the issue you were having was, could you give us more information in case someone can help? A SMAPI log is (almost) always helpful as well. https://smapi.io/log

#

@sturdy basin It's the first download on the Stardew Valley Expanded downloads page.

proven helm
#

Does anyone know if mermaid island is necessary to catch all fish in more new fish?

#

it has so many dependencies

deep zenith
#

You can give me some mods for android

sturdy basin
#

Ok so do I now put it in mods

#

I have opened it

restive zodiac
#

More New Fish doesn't require Mermaid Island but Mermaid Island requires More New Fish

#

@sturdy basin Copy all of those folders from the download into your Mods folder.

sturdy basin
#

These ?

restive zodiac
#

That is not the main SVE download.

#

That's the optional farm layout. Did you download the first main file on the Stardew Valley Expanded page?

sturdy basin
#

No I downloading the remated

restive zodiac
#

Download the first main file on the Stardew Valley expanded page, the farm is optional.

sturdy basin
restive zodiac
sturdy basin
#

Oh ok

robust bison
#

!modrecs 亗ＲＥＶＥＮＧＥＲヅ#5140

native dragonBOT
robust bison
#

do make sure they are mobile compatible though

royal arrow
#

You can check the mod description and comments to be sure, since not everyone uses the tags feature on nexus

sturdy basin
#

So I put these in the mod file or the game file

restive zodiac
#

Those folders go in your Mods folder.

#

You don't need to install anything into your game folder, all the SMAPI mods you download go into the Mods folder, that's the point of it. If something asks you to overwrite anything anywhere outside of the Mods folder, just look for a different mod.

sturdy basin
#

Ok so now I just run the game?

restive zodiac
#

Did you compare screenshots?

sturdy basin
#

I will

#

2 mins

#

Done

#

Now what

restive zodiac
#

If you looked at the screenshots on the install guide and you have at least all the same mods, you can try running the game and seeing if it's working. SMAPI will tell you about any errors it finds.

sturdy basin
#

Ok

restive zodiac
#

You'll need to create a new standard farm (so the top option in the list of farm choices) if you're planning on using the farm you downloaded.

sturdy basin
#

Can I delete these

#

?

restive zodiac
#

Yep.

sturdy basin
#

#

@restive zodiac the mod just isn’t working

#

I’ll show you the log

#

But it’s the diversity + seasonal outfits mod

#

The only part that works is the seasonal outfits

restive zodiac
#

I know that mod has a ton of configuration options, did you set the config.json up how you wanted it?

I did

sturdy basin

would it not be easyir if some1 here downloads anydesk takes conrol of my pc then just do it for me if not thats fine

robust bison
#

that would be more complicated

sturdy basin
#

how?

#

am a bit thic in the head ngl

restive zodiac
#

@sturdy basin Can you take a screenshot of your Mods folder and share it here?

sturdy basin
#

k

robust bison
#

I doubt many people here are familiar with remote control software, and it more of a hassle to set it up than to do it in your own

sturdy basin
restive zodiac
#

(There's also that this is ultimately not a "real" helpdesk or anything . It's just people here to have fun using/making mods and helping other people use/make mods when they can. We don't really want to give people the idea that they can just come in and have other people do everything for them. It's totally understandable to be confused or not know how to do something until you get experienced with it, but no one here is for hire to do it for you, you know? You'll have to do stuff, too.)

#

It looks like you are missing one of the folders from the main SVE download. Can you open that download (or redownload if necessary) and make sure to get all the folders from it into your Mods folder?

sturdy basin
#

Ok am sorry

#

Oh ok

#

Can u send me the link of that folder?

#

Or we’re is it located in the sheet help thing

restive zodiac
#

If you still have that downloaded, you can just re-open the download.

#

Oh, wait. I don't have my glasses on. leans forward to stare at screen

#

sturdy basin
#

Lol

#

Is it the bottom 2

#

1*

restive zodiac
#

It's the bottom left one. Go ahead and continue with that, but it looks like we'll need a full log after that.

sturdy basin
#

K

#

Wait so do I put this full folder in or do I copy them inside it

#

?

restive zodiac
#

Umm, why don't we pause that and go to the log first, in the interest of not accidentally installing duplicates 😅

sturdy basin
#

Ok

#

We’re the log?

#

My mod folders?

restive zodiac
#

When you press the Windows and R buttons at the same time, a run box should pop up. Do you see that?

sturdy basin
#

Ye

#

Run

#

Let me guess

#

%appdata%

restive zodiac
#

Yes! Except we also want the Stardew part, so %appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs

sturdy basin
#

Oh ok

restive zodiac
#

(You could still get there from the first one, though, you'd just need to click through folders.)

sturdy basin
#

It won’t come up

#

I just do the app data

long lynx
#

Would anyone be able to help me understand why my map just will not change to the SVE map?

The world map

restive zodiac

#

Nvm I found the world logs

long lynx
#

ahhh thank you so much

sturdy basin
#

restive zodiac
#

Yeah! Drag that text file into the box at https://smapi.io/log and it should make a pretty parsed log for you to share.

restive zodiac
#

Oh, just to make sure, you closed the game right?

sturdy basin
#

Ye it’s closed

restive zodiac
#

Oh good. I was imagining it just steadily streaming errors in the background this whole time 😅

sturdy basin
#

Yeah it was doing. That till I realised it and closed it

restive zodiac
#

If the errors went on long enough it might just be really big and take a long time for the site to swallow. If it doesn't load in a minute you can try dragging the text file here onto Discord.

sturdy basin
#

K

restive zodiac
#

We have a pretty beefy upload limit thanks to server boosts, so even the chonkiest text file should be able to be sent...

sturdy basin
#

It won’t go on discord I tried before it was over 2k word it said

restive zodiac
#

Nah, just drag the file itself

sturdy basin
#

Oh ok

#

Well my pc is kinda in pain rn lol

low spire
restive zodiac
#

Oh, there's an error in the config file.

sturdy basin
#

It won’t let me close it

restive zodiac
#

You can upload your config.json to https://smapi.io/json and it will help point out any errors with it. It's probably like a missing comma or something. If you can't find it, it will also make a link you can share just like the log! (@low spire )

I can't seem to find the error logs folder

I just got the game and the mods and nothing has crashed yet

restive zodiac
#

Hmm. Just to back up and double check, when you start the game, does a (usually) black console window pop up first and always run in the background?

long lynx
#

yes

restive zodiac
#

Okay, good. Can you copy paste all the console text into the log site https://smapi.io/log ? It will complain that you're doing it wrong, but it would list your mods at the least and confirm that there should definitely be a logs folder hehe

long lynx

alrighty hehe

@long lynx It looks like you're using the regular version of NPC Map Locations, but you want the one specifically for SVE - it will be in the main files section, but under the regular one

No

But am doing that now

#

I'm so sorry to keep bothering but It's still not working :/

#

I have a feeling it has to do with the farm Extended mod i downloaded but I'm not sure

restive zodiac
#

Can you take a screenshot of the inside of your Mods folder and share it here, Jooxnie?

long lynx
#

yes I can

restive zodiac
#

Oh, I think Farm Extended does edit the world map.

That would have shown up in the real log, darn. goes to double check

restive zodiac
#

@long lynx If you open the content.json inside the Farm Extended folder, there should be a block like this json { "Action": "EditImage", "Target": "LooseSprites/map", "FromFile": "assets/map.png" },
You can comment it out by putting it between /* and */, like

    /*{

@long lynx Can you take a screenshot of the inside of your NPC Map Locations folder?

#

@gentle glen Yes, when your game crashes, SMAPI doesn't load until you press a key, so that you have a chance to get the log if you need it. Are you still crashing when you load into the game, though? If so, does it work on a new save?

long lynx

#

Jooxnie, could you also take a screenshot of the inside of the maps folder in there?

restive zodiac
#

Oh sorry, inside the Maps folder

long lynx
#

oh lol okay

restive zodiac
#

I was just looking at a file tree and forgot it was on a different level :P

i was confused for a second XD

gentle glen

#

Yes, I saw them, but I didn't see any answers to any of the questions I asked about them, or the one I asked just now when I asked if you are still crashing when you load in. The second link (https://smapi.io/log/b7b5475e88234422be38938c3ad3e090) is just where SMAPI asks you to press a key, that's normal after a crash.

gentle glen
#

i press any key and load and playing my main game

restive zodiac
#

Hm, I don't see anything else that edits the map in the mod list. When you press the Windows and R keys at the same time, a run box should pop up. If you type %appdata% into it, is there a StardewValley folder in there somewhere? @long lynx

long lynx
#

possibly, but i have to be away from my computer for a little so I wont be able to revisit this until later

aaaaa the new CP update is so exciting SDVpufferaww

all the GMCM options, bless

hardy meadow

im so salty about the timing of the new content patcher update

#

What's the significance?

hardy meadow
#

im brand new to stardew modding and i spent a couple hours today

#

doing this

royal arrow
#

Oh, ya you get used to having to update a ton of mods as soon as you want to play lol

narrow wigeon
#

if you have a lot of non-content-pack mods you might still need that sheet ig

#

since the GMCM stuff is only for content packs

hardy meadow
#

you know what

#

true

#

i feel less salty

tender leaf
#

Updating sucks yeah i feel your pain

hardy meadow
#

nah i love updating

tender leaf
#

And usually with major changes multiple patches are needed

hardy meadow
#

the act of modding is hella fun

royal arrow
#

That's really organized though, very neat SDVpuffersmile
My keybind manager is a paper notebook lol

tender leaf
#

Or nexus is a dummy and says you need to update when you don't

narrow wigeon
#

lololol lenne i'm similar, mine's a txt file in my mods folder

royal arrow
#

Technically SDVpuffernerd
SMAPI points you to an update based on the version number in mods' manifest.json files. So sometimes mod authors may forget to edit the version number in the manifest.json before they upload the new update, and then you get those notifications to update even though you know you have the latest version.
It's harmless though, and pretty simple to fix yourself if you wanted the message to go away

hardy meadow
#

theres a mod with a beta branch as its most recent

tender leaf
#

Once we had nexus ignoring the manifest.json updates though

hardy meadow
#

so that shows up as out of date too if youre using the stable version

#

yea Fresh Meat does that

royal arrow

Oh you mean "eating" the updates? Yea that still happens SDVpufferchicksweatsip

theres a discussions in the forecaster comments about an error

or if its even the same error

dire fractal

Yeah I saw it which is why I decided to remove it

The only errors now are what is in the parsed log

the fatal crash only happens if i exit to title screen on a save, and try to reload the save or into a new save

item bags does some manual thing for compatibility with bundle mods i think. minerva's harder cc bundles (which also has a PPJA option and is the more "official" one) is compatible afaik because item bags' author made it compatible? but this mod was released after item bags' author became inactive iirc

#

basically your problem is using item bags with the bundle mod, you can use either but not both

hardy meadow
#

interesting

#

how does items bags even interact with the bundles?

#

oh right, the bundle bags

royal arrow
hardy meadow

there should be screenshots, I remember it's a ton lol

hardy meadow
shy orbit
#

some of the beach forage items are even practically impossible to get, unless you have a very long playthrough or additional mods that add them as well

hardy meadow
#

the screenshots are vanilla items

shy orbit
#

also the joja bundle can't be completed currently without manual adjustment

hardy meadow

and also very few each

What are your favorite "expansion mods" that you can add to an ongoing save and fits in well, while expanding with new content and things to do?

native dragonBOT
#

@grand lotus You leveled up to Cowpoke. You can now speak in our voice channels!

royal arrow
#

I like Mineral Mage, Deep Woods, and Boarding House

tender leaf
#

Deep woods is fun for sure

hardy meadow
#

deep woods 🙌

#

honestly should be in vanilla

deep totem
#

The most popular expansion is likely SVE (but this it is best enjoyed from fresh save after the playing vanilla), I think Aquarium adds a really nice thing to work for in-game and seems not immersion breaking when added.

That aside some new location and NPCs mod on it's own have quite a bit of content, mermaid island, Jasper, Toshi, lucikiel, ranch expansion, I think there should be some more out there,

shy orbit
#

i still think most of those would be best on a fresh save as well

deep totem
#

True,,

shy orbit
#

or at least on a one that isn't very far

grand lotus
#

Thank you for the suggestions :)
Deep woods is great.
Added secret gourmet yesterday, it recommends mineral mage so might add that as well.
Boarding house and aquarium are both in consideration as well.
I will check out your list, Ben

hardy meadow
#

@lapis void
was looking through comments and saw Item Bag's author posted a comment on the mod yesterday
first time since July
so maybe theres hope, i left a comment

lapis void
#

oh that's good! yeah it sounds like they need to add support for new bundle mods manually

hardy meadow
#

i dunno how much work it'd be but a version without bundle bags would be nice if every new bundle mod breaks it

#

anyway ty for the info, the error was so simple i had no idea how to even get started troubleshooting

fair vessel
#

No way to disable the bundle bags in config or something?

#

Or maybe auto-disable them if it throws errors, would be a nice feature

well, good news, I figured out what cause the error, it's FeTK, which I need for Tool Upgrade Delivery Service :c sadly will need to get rid of those SDVpufferchickhands

naive drum
#

oh yeah FeTK is incompatible with MFM

royal arrow
#

they worked fine except for this business with the collections page, so that's interesting lol

#

The version I had was an unofficial update by Digus, which was supposed to add compatibility, so I'll note that

thank you!

i keep trying to type it in but more text keeps adding over it and i can't get the log up

oh, you can quit the game and the log will still be there

the site has instructions on how to get the log

okay thank you!

oh my gosh i read it wrong whoops

it looks like that log is missing quite a bit of data, did you just copy paste the specific error? you need to copy or drag that whole file into the text box

simple whale

i'll tell her to copy the whole

#

sorry about all this thank you in advance

okay, first thing i would try is completely deleting SVE and reinstalling it--the error is from SVE missing a file, so a clean reinstall should put that back

Ok, can you take a screenshot of the maps folder within NPC Map Locations?

vocal quartz

actually, in looking at the NPC Map Locations for SVE mod, looks like you didn't grab the SVE specific one. I just fired up my save for it, and it looks like this in the log (note it calls out that it's for SVE, but yours in your log doesn't call out SVE)

📎 unknown.png
#

So on the NPC Map Locations page, get the 2nd download listed in the Main Files section, then grab the optional file you need for IFR2 and Foliage Redone

#

uninstall the version of NPC Map Locations you have, install the SVE version, then add the optional file you need for IFR2 and Foliage Redone

hi lenne! just got back playing this weekend 😄

#

@hardy meadow late but yeah, what vibel said. i don't recommend playing ppja mode for now because for one, you need to install mermaid island so you can complete the beach forage bundle due to the very low spawn rates of certain forage items in the regular beach. and before you can even complete the beach forage bundle, you need to unlock access to mermaid island first, which means completing the fish tank bundle.

it took me 3 years to complete the beach forage bundle btw. and now i'm stuck with the joja/movie bundle because you can't age sparkling wine. need to fiddle around with custom cask's content pack first

I'm not sure if this is an issue with getglam or content patcher, but i'm using an eye mod and my hairstyle mod and i have to keep changing my hair back to the preferred one because every time after save, i close the game, and come back in, everything reverts back. Vanilla eyes show back up and my hair mod keeps changing to a specific other hairstyle. I thought this was an issue with customize anywhere since i was using that just before so i removed it but the issue is still remains. One the eye mod's page, I tried merging it the eyes with cuter shoes mod but that didn't work. I used my hairs and made it into an xnb but that also didn't fix it. This used to work but ever since i had to reinstall windows and get back everything, it's like it stopped working correctly. Here's my log https://smapi.io/log/63b2ab10eb504097bdd558df951fba1f

which mod is for exactly?

hi guys! i downloaded an expansion farm map mod and now it messed up my game despite taking it out of my mods folder

#

whenever I choose a save file, exit to title, and choose another save file/make a new one, the game crashes

spice mirage
#

you saved the game with the mod enabled?

prime zealot
#

and now i have this weird discolored box around the black area of my house interior. i'll send a screenshot

#

yes, i did

spice mirage
#

did you delete the save?

prime zealot
#

i saved using a test save file

#

mhm, deleted it

#

(game runs fine when running without SMAPI)

#

i just tried reinstalling SMAPI, didn't work either

#

this is another test file. i took out all my mods while testing

#

my previous save files are fine and don't have the discolored problem. but the crashing problem still occurs no matter what file i switch to/which variants i use when making a new chatacter.

#

i'll send an error log that happens when it crashes.

#

huh! okay, just tested the switching files/making new saves. game no longer crashes SDVthinking

#

alright. now my only problem so far is this abysmal wannabe black color in my house.

vocal quartz
#

the previous saves, u didnt use the new mod on them right?

#

also what farm expansion did u use?

the black border is still in ur game? cuz on the log, it shows u dont have the mod in

prime zealot
#

yes, i dont have any mods installed but the border's still there.

shy orbit
#

have you tried resetting game files?

vocal quartz
#

i feel like u still have the border because u saved the game with that mod on an existing mod similar to when i used sve immersive farm 2 remastered on an old save months ago which caused some errors. Had to use a reset terrain mod but i don't think it'll work for u

#

but i'm not sure

#

what happens if u make a new save with the hilltop mod?

prime zealot
#

hmm, i see. however the black border now shows up with any new saves; i've been making like 5 for the past hour and they all have black borders D:

#

prime zealot
#

i have a whole lot. i just playtested with them, so here's my smapi

#

updates: the crashing problem arose again after putting all my mods back. i think it's related to the discolored tiles problem

vocal quartz
#

@mellow karma did u backup ur mods folder or still have the previous vers of the mods u updated? if so put them back and do a trial and error thing where u update one mod at a time and launch the game to see what that does. no crash = not that mod and add the next mod

#

oh my and i'm struggling to find what's causing the weird border qq @prime zealot

mellow karma
#

i will give it a shot

vocal quartz
#

try removing any mods that change the way the farmhouse looks (adds new rooms, changes certain looks and such idk how else to explain). this one is for the brown background

#

see what that does @prime zealot

#

how did removing the discoloured tiles go?

prime zealot
#

no luck D:

vocal quartz
#

hmmm try uninstalling smapi from the smapi installer, and then go C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley\Saves and take all the files in there and back them up somewhere on your computer. right after, uninstall stardew valley (i think ur using steam right? ) thru steam and make sure there are no leftover files from uninstalling so check ur AppData/Roaming/StardewValley and from C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common and then reinstall stardew valley thru steam. i think steam backsup and saves ur game saves and will put them back after u finish installing the game as they did that for me so backup of game saves might not be required but still do it for just in case something gets lost. launch the game with ur saves and check if the issue remains. if not, install the latest ver of smapi and see what that does

#

backup ur mods as well

#

b4 u uninstall

fickle siren
#

@shy orbit thank you 😃

#

did u try installing the game again?

okay continuing your solution

#

no worries! ❤️

prime zealot
#

okay, tried it. didn't work...

#

i think we can leave this unresolved for now. we've tried so many solutions!

#

the way the issues are behaving makes me strongly believe it's a bug involving SMAPI's newest version itself

#

so once there's a new patch, i'll try it out!

#

but for now, i think i'm ready to accept the borders/crashes. they don't make the game unplayable, so i'm okay to bear with it.

Yeah now that u mention it, I think so too!

I'm on linux and I had to CP my lucky purple shirt in

uugH that so sucks, thank you for the help!

Yw!

I don't think this one was posted here but it was in PPJA, you could try this build? It should have the Linux fix in it?

#

I have like three copies of different JA builds and I dont think a single on fixed it SDVpufferchickcry

keen moss
#

That's _40 soooo

#

I also have no idea how hard it is to fix bugs for Linux 🤷‍♀️ Y'all always seem to have very specific bugs

tired apex
#

I swear our OS is out to murder the tilesheets

keen moss
#

Probably is 😛

#

But yeah if you don't have _40 try that one out for giggles

tired apex
#

I probably will soon enough but my damn memory sticks are on backorder

keen moss
#

Ouch

#

Replacements or upgrade or?

tired apex
#

Upgrade! :D

keen moss
#

😄

#

Everything seems to be either out of stock or on backorder. Friend had an extremely hard time finding a PSU

#

that's likely due to the sheer number of mods you have

fair vessel
#

No, that's not normal

#

And there are people with 700+ mods that don't get stuttering like that

plucky oriole
#

Removing each mod one-by-one may help

fair vessel
#

Well, unless your computer is 🥔 lol

lament junco
#

I play skyrim with 200+ on this machine

fair vessel
#

I wonder if it's happening on the intervals when game time updates? 610, 620, 630 etc

#

That's every 7 seconds unless you're using something like TimeSpeed

lament junco
#

yes, i count 7 seconds like 80% of the time

fair vessel
#

Could be a mod that hooks into the update time event and is running some convoluted amount of unnecessary logic

lament junco
#

let me try loading with just half the mods

#

no stuttering happening

#

I think I need to load one by one the mods untill I find the one who's doing it

fair vessel
#

Yeah, but there's a faster way than one by one

#

You removed half right? Now add half of the removed half back in

lament junco
#

ohh, I see

fair vessel
#

Good ol' binary search SDVpuffernerd

sharp belfry
#

it can be a case of Automate

#

I had a similar issue with it, increasing the interval between checks in the config helped

wicked swift
#

@tired brook and everyone else, of course. So I noticed, that my latest achievement was not recorded to Steam (and later I saw that my steam overlay was not working). I did set up everything according to https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows but I thought maybe I messed something up. So I removed Stardew Valley completely (aside from the save games) and reinstalled only the newest SMAPI version (and added the launch options). No luck, still no overlay. I removed the launch option in steam and just started the vanilla game and everything launched as it should (including steam overlay). Do I miss something important here? Is it just broken for me? :/ I use Windows and Steam, just to be clear.

Modding:Installing SMAPI on Windows

This page explains how to install SMAPI (the tool which lets you use mods) on Windows. See also:

fair vessel
#

Oh true - if you have thousands of machines in your game, Automate is a likely culprit (or one of the mods that integrates with Automate)

#

@wicked swift you need to launch through Steam in order to get steam achievements. I'm not sure about the overlay, but I do know that starting the vanilla game (or modded game) from the exe without launching through Steam will cause achievements not to register.
And if you later re-launch with Steam, it does not give you any retroactive achievements earned, either. You'll just miss out on earning them in Steam (unless you alter things yourself with a mod or with Steam Achievement Manager)

wicked swift
#

@fair vessel I always launch through steam

fair vessel
#

Hmm.

#

What was the achievement?

wicked swift
#

To get all skills to maximum

fair vessel
#

It's possible that a harmony C# mod could accidentally skip over some code that is necessary to assign a steam achievement

wicked swift
#

Well not sure if that's it, because I still don't have a steam overlay when launching through steam :/ and maybe that's the cause.

fair vessel
#

Does your log say you're connected to steam?

wicked swift
#

Where should it say this, this is my current full log:

Can you upload your SMAPI log to https://smapi.io/log (see instructions on that page) and share the link here?

wicked swift
fair vessel
#

Steam logged on: True
seems to be there from the log 🤔

wicked swift
#

Yep :/

fair vessel
#

I found the part of the code that assigns it, it's in LevelUpMenu

#

So the place where it should show up is overnight when you sleep after getting the last skill at level 10

wicked swift
#

Yeah, you get the skill notification only when you go to bed, so I got the notification, game saved, new day, no achivement in steam.

fair vessel
#

Can you share a log with all the mods you were using?

wicked swift
#

One moment

tired brook
#

The missing Steam overlay is probably related. Can you post a screenshot of your full game folder, and copy & paste your Steam launch options here?

wicked swift
#

Yes, will do. Give me a sec

#

Do you need the full mod folder, too?

tired brook
#

Nope, probably not related to mods.

wicked swift
#

"G:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command% these are my start options

humble fox
#

@wicked swift try this "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley\StardewModdingAPI.exe" %command%

wicked swift
#

@humble fox my steam folder is not there, so this wouldn't work

humble fox
#

oh ok

tired brook
#

Have you already tried rebooting the computer? That'll reinitialize Steam, in case something is stuck/conflicting with it.

lament junco
#

Hello, can anyone help me? My game stutters every 3-4 seconds, it just stops completely for like almost a second, and then continues and stops again https://smapi.io/log/466b56507ab74329b181c655dc6c82a2
in case anyone was still wondering it was these mods, every one of them add a very slight stuttering by themselves, barely noticeable unless you're looking for them, but when loaded at the same time, the stuttering is super noticeable

📎 unknown.png
wicked swift
#

@tired brook will try the restart

fair vessel
#

hmmm, Content Patcher Animations huh?

humble fox
#

animated mods

#

gervig is shaking

fair vessel
#

It's probably something with the framework, not the fault of the individual mods that add animations for it

tired brook
#

Looking at the CPA code, seems like it works by replacing the texture data for each animated sprite 60 times/second.

fair vessel
lament junco
#

yeah, i guessed, anyway, not essential mods, can live without them

wicked swift
#

@tired brook I did the reboot and still no overlay :/

tired brook
#

You could try reinstalling Steam, but otherwise I don't know what else you could try. 🤔

wicked swift
#

Well the overlay works without SMAPI though :/

tired brook
#

The overlay should work fine with SMAPI, not sure why Steam isn't injecting it correctly for you.

lament junco
fair vessel
#

@lament junco might be a case-sensitive issue?

what is inside this folder on your computer? /home/keepach/GOG Games/Stardew Valley/game/Mods/[PPJA] Farmer to Florist/[PFM] Farmer to Florist/

halcyon shard
#

ehm can someone help me? i just updated smapi and it gives one error on comsole commands but that is installed?

📎 error_smapi.jpg
fair vessel
#

it gives an error because Console Command is installed twice

#

once inside Mods/, once inside Mods/Mods_Joel/

lament junco
fair vessel
#

Ah yeah

halcyon shard
#

okay and can that be solved by taking one of the two out or can i just ignore it?

fair vessel
#

Change those two producer files to start with a capital P, maybe that will fix it

#

@halcyon shard yeah, delete one will fix it

halcyon shard
#

okay thanks

fair vessel
#

@lament junco and if that works, drop a comment on the mod page so they can fix it for other Mac/Linux users.

halcyon shard
#

thanks

wicked swift
tired brook
#

Let me know if you ever find a solution for that, it might help the next person. 🤔

wicked swift
#

Jeah sure :/ will do.

lament junco
#

@lament junco and if that works, drop a comment on the mod page so they can fix it for other Mac/Linux users.
@fair vessel it worked, I'm gonna do that, just a small question. How do I delete saves that I don't need anymore without them reappearing because they have a backup that is added by smapi (i believe)?

fair vessel
#

🤔 they should just get deleted when you delete them from the game save menu. Smapi's backups are stored in a separate folder and don't get restored automatically

#

Steam cloud might be the culprit?

tired brook
#

Yep, Steam will resync any missing saves when the game launches. To prevent that, launch the game and then delete them from the folder while it's open. Then Steam will sync the deletions to its cloud backup.

lament junco
#

I have it in GOG, no steam, it does have resync, I'm gonna turn it off for this game

sturdy locust
#

(I mention furniture because game is mad at custom furniture)

fair vessel
#

Custom Furniture mod is buggy in multiplayer @sturdy locust

#

Adopt & Skin too - can cause unstoppable waves of horse clones and other problems

#

Best to check mods for compatibility when running them on a multiplayer save

tender ingot
#

does anyone know how demanding the dreamy valley reshade mod is?

#

like is it more so than a recolor?

sturdy locust
#

How would I solve my crashing then, Jonqora? Remove furniture?

#

And yeah we've problem solved the horse clones :p luckily AnS has some decent debugging commands.

fair vessel
#

Yeah SDVpufferchickcry
...And also ChildToNPC - it's broken now, you need the unofficial update, but even with that I've been seeing people with problems in multiplayer

sturdy locust
#

Alright. I'll start by trashing my house and see what happens :p

#

And if not look into the baby. It might be trying to turn into a toddler.

#

Hii i hope everyone is having a good day

#

Is there a mod that changes the way the day/night light look through the windows inside your farmhouse?

#

Cause during daylight it looks so bright and during the night you can’t see anything 😹

fair vessel
#

I think there may be something for nighttime
But you can also just add vanilla furniture lamps to the room

#

or torches

#

OH or you mean the view through the windows?

dire fractal

yeah bc like

daylight is obnoxious

ahhh thank youuuu ❤️

i'll upload my log

but

#

i tried to merge two pngs together, of walls and floors

#

but only one is loading

#

im not getting any errors

#

but it's CP so i wonder if it's because they reached the wallpapers/floors limit?

fair vessel
#

how did you merge them? photoshop or something?

dire fractal
#

yes

#

photoshop

fair vessel
#

Did you join them together, or select and use some from each?

dire fractal
#

the second one is the og one

fair vessel
#

(joining to make a larger number of total ones will not work)

dire fractal
#

the first is the one i merged

#

ohh

#

i'd have to select and fit into the second png? like, replace manually the ones i don't want?

fair vessel
#

to merge most types of content patcher tilesheets requires like, cutting and pasting pieces to make something the same size as the originals but containing some images from each one

dire fractal
#

ah i see

#

makes sense

#

thank you

fair vessel
#

there's a few exceptions (like hair I think) but not many

dire fractal
#

i tried to do that with hair but the hair was like

#

all over my face

#

it was not proportional

(i tried merging eemie's hair with coii's)

slightly pissing me off the white divider between wall and floor nfjngjgngjn

There's alignment sheets for hair, I wish I had them ready to go, I know I've shared them either here or in #making-mods-general, but I'm about to go driving so I can't search SDVpufferchickhands

@royal arrow do you know any other mods for this

@tender ingot It might. ReShade can be performance heavy but there's really no way to tell without trying it out. You can always uninstall it if your framerate tanks.

Hi! i was in this chat yesterday looking for help regarding my world map in SVE, would anyone be able to help?

faint panther
#

is it possible to use mods on the switch

keen moss
#

No Twantony. It would require jailbreaking your switch and even then you would be limited to XNB mods which directly replace game files. Plus there's always the potential to brick your switch and be banned from Nintendo services.

faint panther
#

dang, I might pick it up on PC then too

keen moss
#

It's for sure worth picking up on PC even if just for the mods 🙂

tender leaf
#

probably bigger than you need

keen moss
tender leaf
#

yeah that is hope's template

Sometimes Discord distorts larger images even when viewed full size so in case it gets messed up

that's fair, also it's great to ssnag the other templates as well

#

okay hi i hate to bug everyone again

#

i'm having the exact same problem as before

#

i can't get SVE to load, and it's wanting to crash my game when i try to load it up

#

i've deleted all the files for it and redownloaded them

#

just to make sure i've gotten everything and there's no empty files

#

there is one SVE folder on my computer

#

and i keep getting this message

#

everything is very up to date because i've had to download, delete, and redownload a total of like four times

#

im so sorry to keep bugging about this, but it'll do this, work one time, and then the next time i go to play, it's like this again

#

and i haven't done anything to make it mess up

fair vessel
#

you have two folders with it
the error message tells you the locations of both, and how to fix it

#

One is in Mods/ and one is in Mods/Mods/

long lynx
#

Would anyone be able to help me out with my world map in SVE

fair vessel
#

@long lynx were you able to get a parsed log yet or no luck with that?

long lynx
#

my game hasn't crashed so I idk if I have any error logs. But I can just put the whole smapi log into the box if that'll work

fair vessel
#

It doesn't need to be a crash log, but it does need to be the whole SMAPI-latest.txt file, not copy-pasted from the console

long lynx
#

ahhhhh okay

royal arrow
#

Is there a mod that changes the way the day/night light look through the windows inside your farmhouse?
do you know any other mods for this
@dire fractal I think you meant someone else for this, I didn't suggest Better Windows, that was Jonqora

long lynx
#

it says my error log folder is empty

#

which is where i would find the SPAMI-latest.txt file right?

fair vessel
#

Yeah.

#

I wonder if it's a permissions issue preventing smapi from writing the file.

long lynx
#

SDVpufferfingerguns lovely

fair vessel
#

hang on... why is your game installed in C:\Users\jemer\Documents\Stardew.Valley.v1.4.5\Stardew.Valley.v1.4.5\? Do you have a pirated copy?

long lynx
#

I'm honestly not sure, my Boyfriend downloaded it because he couldn't log into steam so maybe? if you all can't help me because of that I completely understand

fair vessel
#

Yeah, if it's a cracked copy that (or the way it was installed) is very likely the source of your issues with smapi logs not working, and probaby other things too.

long lynx
#

That would explain a lot of things

#

Thank you

#

If ReShade doesn't work on Linux then no

#

There are many other recolor mods out there that use Content Patcher instead of Reshade, which could be an alternative.

royal arrow
#

Yea the mod description says it only works on Windows and specifically says it does not work on Mac, Linux, or Android

lament junco
#

Thanks, I'll look around for a CP option

where do i go to get help when im using mods? do i post the stuff here?

Yup, this is the place for help with using mods, and asking questions or discussing mods you use SDVpuffersmile

#

how do i find my version

royal arrow
#

Your version of what, the game, a specific mod...?

primal laurel
#

the game

fair vessel
#

Little question mark on the main menu screen in the corner
Or your smapi log will always print that info at the top

primal laurel
#

So i just need to look at the smapi log?

royal arrow
#

Yea I usually look at the top of the SMAPI window or the log, so while I figured there was another way, I wasn't sure what it was, thanks for reminding me you can look at it in the main menu, Jonqora! 😅

#

Time to get a screenshot

#

ok

Try pressing F12? That sometimes fixes this

#

I just wanted to try mods for the first time

#

Not in general, just on Stardew Valley

fair vessel
#

curious, how come the game is installed on your Desktop? Did you not download it from Steam or GOG?

primal laurel
#

No

#

My friend shared some files with me so we could play together
